While studying for the exam, I was reading over the pages assigned and came across the parts where Edwards was giving his environmental views. Basically, he stated that we are part of the earth, and the earth does not belong to us. We should take care of it in order to be virtuous and ethical people. It was pretty good views of early environmentalism, and while I might not agree 100%, it's understandable.
If the greenies of today acted more tranquil perhaps I wouldn't consider them such laughing stocks. But instead a lot of them act like a bunch of loonies forcing us to adhere to a lot of their junk sciences. Hell, I've watched a documentary with the co-founder of Green Peace admitting to having to leave the organization, which he helped started, because a lot of the old commies started jumping to environmental causes with a reverent fever. Their disrespect for private property rights shines right through, and I hate to break it to them, but this land isn't your land, so quit hammering your hammer hippies (horrid pun to old stupid folk songs intended). When I see these greenies, all I see are a bunch of a lazy college kids with nothing else better to do but whine about some cause in a effort to "change the world". Thy go about it with hatred, and hell if something like a fact gets in there way. I could go on, but lets just say I have zero respect for the smelly white boy in dreads holding a sign that says "We belong to the Earth, the Earth doesn't belong to the evil Bush administration!!!" (insert peace symbol here).
What happened to the days of more tranquil environmentalism? Was it that people just had better things to do back then, or perhaps there brains weren't liquidized by the crappy media and overtly liberal college professors? I could get into the whole 17th century environmental movement, or at the very least understand it and even listen to it, but todays greenies, well, I think I've said enough already.
